Jerry Seinfeld Does Kevin Hart a Favor | 2024 Mark Twain Prize

Kevin Heart is probably the most popular comedian in the last 15 years. But boy, like it or not, Seinfeld, Rock, and Chapelle did more for comedy than he ever will.

[@kaneidareyue7715]

Well not really - in terms of stand up he can't compare to Chapelle. People like him because of marketing and illuminati, not because of skills.

[@sm91x]

In movies, he's bigger than all of them !

[@javidelvalmusic]

"I don't know but Kevin Hart's in it" is so real 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

[@lordkingston]

Absolutely truthful and brilliant speech.

[@mandcbruce]

Exactly what I was thinking. He's being honest and it's damn funny!😂

[@hamblyrock]

Seinfelds ability to turn regular schtick into something funny will always be a mystery to me. His ego is what makes it funny but he never says anything too outrageous or crass. He’s one of the GOATs when he’s in free flow mode.

[@amoss.7796]

And Jerry is the OG right there in the midst of them all

[@ASimoneau]

It's weird some of the people who've gotten this award, when you consider that Seinfeld hasn't.

[@itsmeprasad1987]

Hasn’t he. It’s amazing. Kevin deserves it but it’s too early

[@atseizetheday]

He refused it, talks about that during a cars and coffee with Eddie Murphy as I recall - said "this Porsche is the only prize I need" while driving a Carrera GT.

Look at the list of people who were there to speak on Kevin's behalf. Chris Rock, Jerry Seinfeld, Dave Chapelle....and more. Then look at the legendary list of previous recipients of this award. Whoopi Goldberg, Eddie Murphy, Bill Murray, Adam Sandler.... The list goes on. He is in a whole different realm than a katt williams. That is why he doesn't need to address a cockroach like that. He wasn't exposed. There is no validation to katt williams. katt can't pass a drug test or lie detector test. When Kevin has some of the "Greats" speaking on his behalf. Why worry about the less fortunate crabs in the barrel hating ass mf'ers that just wanna bring him down. Misery needs company.

@@zacharywhite211 Chris Rock is a comedy legend. Kevin Hart is a screaming clown. They're not even in the same league. Rock walked so Kevin could put on a crumpled safari hat and act like a doofus in Jumanji. It's like giving an Oscar to the dolphin from Flipper.
